Heh, cool.  The question, of course, is whether that particular
"Tendou" is spelled the same as Takahashi's (i.e. with the
{heaven} and {law/teaching} kanji).  Given the high rate of
homophones in Japanese, the chance is probably rather slim.  On
the other hand the chance that there *is* some kind of "Tendo
Dojo" (however spelled) is considerable. :)
